GOOD WORK, TAYLOR PEOPLE
Recently, I sent you an e-mail regarding your sweepstakes entry rules [as they apply to those living in rural areas far from a Taylor dealer]. I am quite impressed that: 1) you responded at all; and, 2) you actually were willing to consider my request. As you and I know, Taylor is likely to sell more guitars in one good weekend in Denver than over an entire year in the entire state of Wyoming (we are about 450,000 strong). The fact that you would devote time and resources to consider my request indicates a company that retains the ability to look beyond the dreaded Abottom line.

Congratulations to your marketing and public relations people; your policies will develop a customer base that is loyal and multi-generational, ensuring prosperity for future Taylor people. I withdraw my request for sweepstakes consideration; it wouldn't be fair to the folks who must go into the dealerships to have their entries validated. However, based on your actions (and the sound of your guitars), I will purchase a Taylor as my next guitar. Good work, Taylor People.

TONE ALONE
I received the new 412-CE that I ordered. It's incredible! I've done two jobs [with it] already and the difference between the Taylor and my [other guitar] was night and day. I just wanted to say thanks for the tone! You made a 32-year guitar vet very happy!
